As chance had it, I came across 'Lady Baltimore' soon after listening to Chesnutt's devastating novel 'The Colonel's Dream' Both novels are about visitors to small Southern towns dealing with the changes brought about by reconstruction.
While these novels tell very different stories, I found much value in both. There is truth in the telling of both. This was my introduction to Owen Wiston, and I truly enjoyed the softer pacing, which perfectly matched the story told.
